'A totally terrific tribute to Taito'

While scouring the web for Bubble Bobble screenshots yesterday (that's when I wrote my inaugural '10 video games that made my life gayer' post), I came across "a totally terrific tribute to Taito."

The site caught my attention because, as its name suggests, it doesn't just cover Bubble Bobble but (almost) all of Taito's arcade hits (and a few misses, too) from the '70s, '80s and '90s--including Liquid Kids (aka Mizubaku Daibouken), The New Zealand Story and Rainbow Islands.

Another reason the site stopped me in my tracks: It introduced me to a Taito-developed game--The Fairyland Story--that, until yesterday, I'd never heard of. (I just played it via MAME--yes, I'm a dirty pirate--and found it pretty enjoyable, even if it doesn't exactly hold a candle to similar games that followed it, like Bubble Bobble and Don Doko Don.)

Anyway, I recommend checking out the site if you're at all interested in classic arcade games.
